Britney 'sued by songwriters'

It is reported two songwriters are suing Britney Spears over a track they claim they wrote.

Michael Cottrill and Larry Wnukowski say they own the copyright to What You See Is What You Get.

A lawsuit filed in federal court in Philadelphia says the song was pirated on her Oops, I Did It Again album.

Cottrill and Wnukowski are suing Britney, her publishing company and her recording company.

Their lawyers George Bochetto and Gavin P Lentz are seeking "millions of dollars".

Cottrill has told the Philadelphia Daily News: "More than anything, we want the recognition that we wrote a good tune.

"We were hoping this was 'the' hit for us, a really well-done tune."

Jive Records and Zomba have not commented on the lawsuit.
